Questions or concerns should be directed to the Head Coach first—always
The Athletic Director will refer concerns back to the coaching staff
Email is the primary form of communication
Please allow 24–48 hours for responses

Parent & Spectator Expectations
Coaching decisions (lineups, positions, playing time) are final
High school lacrosse takes priority over club sports and outside activities during the season
Players may not participate in another school sport during the season
Families may be asked to assist with transportation for off-campus events
Coaching from the stands is not permitted
Support the team through positive encouragement, respect for officials, and volunteering
Unsportsmanlike behavior toward players or officials may result in removal from the stands and follow-up with school administration.

Sportsmanship & Conduct
Rock Canyon athletes and families are expected to represent the program with integrity, respect, and class.
All players must sign a Contract of Conduct
Players are accountable for behavior in and out of uniform
Coaches reserve the right to remove a player from participation for conduct that misrepresents the team or school
These expectations apply to players, parents, and spectators.
Chain of Communication
Player → Coach is always the first step
Parents should only be involved after the player has communicated directly with the coach
Playing time and performance will not be discussed immediately after games
Conversations may occur no sooner than 24 hours post-game
Players are expected to advocate for themselves. This program is a safe and supportive place to develop that life skill.
Practice Attendance & Commitment
All practices are mandatory. Appointments, work, and outside commitments must be scheduled around practice. During the season, Rock Canyon Girls’ Lacrosse is the top priority.
Consistent attendance is essential to team success.
Missing more than three (3) practices may result in dismissal from the program
Players may choose JV placement if academics or work require a reduced commitment
Schedules and updates will be posted on this team website.
Academic Eligibility
Grades are reviewed weekly by school administration
Players must be passing five (5) classes
Ineligible players may not participate in games or practices until eligibility is restored
Players will be notified directly by coaches
Academics always come first.
Fundraising & Involvement
We welcome parent involvement through:
King Soopers Community Rewards
Restaurant fundraising nights
Volunteer opportunities
Please reach out if you’d like to help.

Athletic Registration Help
There are two parts to Athletic registration-
- rchsjags.com website- Registering and uploading a physical form
- Myschoolbucks.com – Payment of the participation fee through the “school store”
Physical Form- ALL athletes will need to upload a physical form. The old physical forms will not transfer to the new registration system.
Students registering for Athletics must have a current physical examination before the student is authorized to participate in practice/tryouts. To ensure clearance for participation, physicals must be completed and uploaded into your family account on the registration site prior to the first day of practice/tryouts.
Physical Form– Physicals are valid for 1 year from the date of the last exam.
